    May 21, 1975

    Midchelda Central Subdivision, Acosta Hotel

    ¡°I really didn¡¯t expect to be negotiating in a place like this.¡± Camillo, wearing a formal white suit, stood at the entrance of the Acosta Hotel and sighed meaningfully.

    The Acosta Hotel is a large hotel located in the urban area surrounded by forests, and this is where Crono and Amy held their wedding more than 4 years ago.  Although the name of the place mentioned in the letter seemed familiar, I didn't expect that when I got there, I discovered that the other party had actually chosen this place.

    "What is this? Antique art auction?" I looked at the notice board at the main entrance quite unexpectedly.  So I casually clicked on the introduction to the auction items in the system.

    "Oh~ I see, it is indeed a natural cover. In this way, even if we meet openly, no one will notice it."

    It turns out that there are several pieces of ancient heritage that are allowed to be circulated in this auction.  In other words, it is not surprising that these ancient heritages that are judged to be harmless to society and only have artistic value are attractive to anyone, not to mention that the organizers have invited some famous official scholars to come in order to build publicity.  It's also a normal thing.

    ¡° Also, such large-scale auctions often become a disguised channel for contraband, and many department heads of the Administration will come in person to find out the information they need from this unofficial channel.

    ¡¾If I had known this was the case, I should have called Sister Ovia!  ¡¿Looking with some distress at the long queue that had formed in front of the reception desk (that is, the reception desk, people arriving need to sign their names), I couldn¡¯t help but think of this.

    Because this meeting was secret and it was necessary to avoid attracting as much attention as possible to others, Ovia always acted with Kamyu, which had become a significant sign. In desperation, Ovia had to stay in the Magic Guide.  The school department must be attracting attention!

    However, based on the current situation, it seems that he has done something stupid that is superfluous, but it is too late to call Ovia here now.  We have no choice but to continue to implement it.

    "I remember there was an invitation letter about an auction held at the Acosta Hotel" He was about to turn on the communicator to contact Ovia to send the invitation letter.

    ¡¾Forget it, if you attend the auction with an invitation letter, you will definitely be asked by the organizer to show your face in front of the stage. Even if you refuse, you may still be attacked by them unexpectedly.  This will make you look very eye-catching.  £®  £®  £®  ¡¿

    So he put the communicator away angrily and patiently went to line up.

    When it was his turn, Kamyu took out his member card

    The person in charge of the reception jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and then bowed in fear. If Camiyu hadn't repeatedly comforted him and said not to make any noise, and then quickly slipped into the hall, I'm afraid he would have been beaten by the organizer by now.  surrounded.

    "Huh? That's" The peach-purple long-haired knight wearing a brown military uniform noticed a familiar figure sneaking into the venue quietly and quickly from the side.

    "What's wrong, Xigno?" Vita, who was not far away, noticed the situation here and asked.

    "It's nothing, just like seeing an acquaintance."

    "An acquaintance?"

    ¡°It just feels like it, don¡¯t worry about it.¡± Although he said this verbally, Signor decided to catch up and take a look.

    "Finally, I escaped" Kamiyu breathed a sigh of relief after running wildly for a long distance.

    "But" He raised his hand and looked at the time.

    "It should be about this time."

    "It's really on time! Minister of Magic, His Excellency Lieutenant General Camillo Harlowen." A gentle but slightly manic voice came from the side.

    The visitor was wearing a black suit, with shoulder-length blond hair tied back. He was walking towards here with a small password box in his left hand, and his right hand began to be slightly raised forward as if he wanted to shake hands with Camillo.  look

    "I have heard of your name for a long time, I am"

    "Meade Central Technology Development Bureau, the sixth director, Maximilian Mugel!" Camillo coldly said the name and origin of the person.

    "Just skip the handshake! Anyway, you haven't thought about establishing a real friendship with me. Since both parties hate each other, it's better to put away these hypocritical etiquettes!"

    It¡¯s not that Kamiyu is being aggressive. In fact, the Ministry of Magic and the Central Technology Development Bureau have always been incompatible enemies. They originally belonged to the scientific force, and the two sides should cooperate sincerely.  In fact, this is not the case. The Ministry of Magic is directly under the General Administration.?It has been established since the beginning of the new calendar year and has accumulated great prestige.  The establishment of the Central Technology Development Bureau was a confrontational department established by the Ground Headquarters after the disagreement between the General Administration and the Supreme Council, hoping not to be restrained by the General Administration.  Therefore, the two sides were destined not to be friends from the beginning.

    In the early days, the Central Technology Development Bureau was prosperous. It can be said that although it was not as good as the Ministry of Magic, it gradually began to occupy a place in the administration.

    However, things completely changed 14 years ago when the third director of the Technology Development Bureau was in office.  The third director of the Technology Development Bureau, Precia Testarossa, was exiled for conducting prohibited experiments because of a magic experiment that resulted in the death of her 5-year-old daughter, and her whereabouts are unknown since then.

    Since then, the Central Technology Development Bureau has been brutally suppressed by the top management of the Ministry of Magic and the Administration. Although it has not reached the point of collapse, it has basically lost its competitiveness.  In the short period of 14 years since then, three directors have been replaced one after another. One can imagine the situation of the Central Technology Development Bureau.

    Similarly, the Ministry of Magic also had a more serious disturbance than the Central Technology Development Agency four years ago - the Raistlin Rebellion

    The dignified Minister of Magic actually launched a rebellion that overthrew the world. This was not just a slap in the face of the Administration, but the Ministry of Magic felt like a heavy punch.  Fortunately, Raistlin carried out his own rebellion plan after leaving office, so the Ministry of Magic was not too deeply implicated. However, the loss of reputation and credibility was extremely serious.

    Although the Ministry of Magic has more than 20 generals and is also the main scientific research institution of the Administration, the Ministry of Magic cannot be withdrawn easily. If it is hit too hard, the Administration will be unprepared.  It's like cutting off an arm.

    Even so, Camille has been criticized ever since he became the Minister of Magic. There was distrust due to his young age, distrust in the credibility of the Magic Department, etc. He was only 17 years old at the time.  The pressure is unimaginable.

    During that time, the Central Technology Development Bureau was in full opposition to the Ministry of Magic. They would oppose any development plan approved by the Ministry of Magic, and they would agree to it if the Ministry of Magic opposed it.  Camillo's Nibelungen plan fell through due to their opposition.

    As the saying goes, enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other. Even though Maximilian's words just now seemed very polite and appropriate, in fact, they were completely disrespectful.

    Example 1: Really on time~ These words are spoken in the tone of an elder or superior, but the rank order of the Central Technology Development Agency lags far behind the Ministry of Magic.

    Example 2: I¡¯ve heard your name for a long time, and it¡¯s clear that Kamiyu is a superior officer, but the other party ignored this fact and did not use honorifics in his words.

    ¡°Hmph hum¡­¡± Maximilian let out a gloomy low smile.

    "Well~ I didn't invite you here today just to have a dispute about the long-standing grievance between our two families. Besides, there is no sense in wasting time on this."

    "Although we usually disagree with each other regardless of the reason, this time I have to agree with you." Kamiyu nodded indifferently.

    "Does that mean that our conversation this time has a good start?" Maximilian made a little joke

    "I hope so too."

    "Hmphthen please come this way"

    After saying that, Maximilian led Camillo to a VIP box at the auction venue.

    the other side.  £®  £®

    ¡¾What is Kamiyu doing here?  ¡¿Signo, who was about to go up to say hello in the distance, suddenly stopped, and then quickly blocked himself behind a pillar, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

    "It doesn't seem like a friendly meeting of friends!"

    The tense atmosphere between the two sides made Xigno feel excited. He held Lei Bandi tightly in his hand, and if anything went wrong, he would rush out to help immediately.

    ¡¾Really, why is Ovia nowhere to be seen at this time?  Didn't he say that he wanted to be a guardian knight who would protect him all his life?  ¡¿Although that is what he thinks, it is not clear what Xigno's inner thoughts are.

    However, just when Signo was ready to rush out, the two parties seemed to suddenly accept the mediation, started chatting pleasantly, and then walked to the VIP room.

    ¡°I really don¡¯t understand, but I always feel like I have a bad premonition.¡±

    After careful consideration, his sense of responsibility prompted Signo to decide to temporarily return to his post, and if he had any questions, he would ask them in person later.

    at the same time

    "Three young women who can be called rare beauties, wearing tulle wedding dressesThe dress came to the reception desk. Her slim but plump figure was completely displayed under the outline of the dress. Even though she was wrapped in light makeup, she still exuded an irresistible charm.  No matter who you are, you will stop here for a long time and hope that this beautiful scenery will be imprinted in your heart forever.

    The girl with short brown hair and a pair of cross earrings showed her ID card to the counter.  £®  £®  £®  £®

    "Hello, we are from the Sixth Mobile Division, we are responsible for the internal security"

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????

    All right!  I finally collapsed (I was just sick and had a slight fever)

    The weather in Melbourne is really weird. After two days of high temperatures, the temperature suddenly cooled down. As a result, I accidentally got caught.  That¡¯s all for today, I hope you all can forgive me.
